Ascendant

Hidden within our civilization, two ancient, hidden sects are slowly dying out. With a purposeful placement of their hands, the Lucent have the ability to heal illness and injury, while the Aphotic cause death and destruction with an equivalent touch.

It is forbidden for the two sects to associate, a law paved with the blood of those who dared to disobey. But sometimes, love doesn’t head human rules, and so history repeats itself.

Mia Flynn was a normal girl living an unexceptional life until the day she met Kieran Blake. Destined to fall in love but never be together, this is their story.

It is a tale of the time the light and the dark attempted to merge, and the terrible consequences in store for those who choose to defy fate.

For never was there a story of more woe, than that of Juliet and her Romeo.
-William Shakespeare
